A few commens and suggestions are too much to give. Especially for someone
who claims extensive markeing knowledge? Most of us give a great deal of
free information here. In fact, the whole point is to share information.
Even if we sometimes feel uncomfortable with the information coming up
against our belief systems.

Translation: I have no clue. Which I think many of us suspected all along.
It would be quite easy for a college kid with a textbook on marketing theory
to make the statements that you have made in the past.
It seems unlikely that a true professional in the business could not look at
a typical farmer owned direct marketing farm and easily outlined some
concepts that would benefit everyone. I rather doubt that many (any?) of us
is going to be heading for "professional" marketing experience and the
attendant cost which would make it economically impractical.
Sincerely,
Rick Williams
